What are the best hidden places in the Boston area?<\/h2>\n

Boston is an extremely touristy city, with hundreds of thousands of people visiting every year to tour colleges, visit historical attractions, and see friends and family. Below are a list of unique things to do if you\u2019re in Boston<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Be sure to visit at least some of the places here:<\/b><\/p>\n

Mapparium<\/b><\/h3>\n

One of the most breathtaking and unique experiences in Boston, the Mapparium is a giant, stained glass globe that visitors can walk through. Located in the Mary Baker Eddy Library, the globe is three stories high. There is also an exhibit in the library that explains the history, construction, and architecture of the Mapparium. This attraction is located in Back Bay<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bodega<\/b><\/h3>\n

This is located right next to the Mary Baker Eddy Library, making it the perfect stop after the Mapparium. Though it looks like a normal convenience store on the inside, a fake soda machine leans to a secret store, selling luxury streetwear and designer clothing. This is a Boston secret you won\u2019t want to miss out on.<\/p>\n

Brattle Bookshop<\/b><\/h3>\n

This is another unique shopping experience you\u2019ll only find in Boston. The Brattle Bookshop specializes in antique and second-hand books. They sell books for $1, $3, and $5 outside, but in the attic you can find vintage and historic books, for sale at a much higher price.<\/p>\n

The Museum of Bad Art<\/b><\/h3>\n

Though the name may be strange, this Somerville museum is an extremely fun and unique experience. This basement museum showcases art that doesn\u2019t conform to the typically standards of beauty. This fascinating exhibit is one you won\u2019t want to miss.<\/p>\n

Corey Hill Park<\/b><\/h3>\n

This Brookline park has a unique view you can enjoy. The park only takes up four acres, but has footpaths, dog parks, and lawns. This beautiful park is a great place for a picnic or rest in between sightseeing.<\/p>\n

Skinny House<\/b><\/h3>\n

This home only occupies an area of 10 feet at its widest point, with 6 feet at its most narrow point, and ceilings reaching only 6 feet. Located in downtown Boston just blocks from the bank of the Charles River, try to find this unique piece of architecture when exploring Boston.<\/p>\n

Forest Hills Cemetery<\/b><\/h3>\n

Because of Boston\u2019s historical significance, the cemeteries in this city are an attraction in it of themselves. Forest Hills Cemetery is one of the most famous. It\u2019s a hidden Victorian Cemetery right in the middle of downtown Boston. Though a little spooky, this is one of the unique parts of the city. If you can find it, it\u2019s absolutely worth strolling through.<\/p>\n

Caffe Vittoria<\/b><\/h3>\n

Located right in the center of the city, Caffe Vittoria was the first Italian caf\u00e9 to be established in Boston. It\u2019s been around since the early 1900s, meaning they\u2019ve been making their traditional Italian coffee, pastries, and ice cream for over a hundred years. This place is popular among locals, who swing by to grab a cannoli and a strong espresso.<\/p>\n

Monica’s Mercato<\/b><\/h3>\n

Without a doubt, one of the best stores in town. Monica\u2019s Mercato offers an incredible collection of first-class meats, cheeses, breads, and beverages. It\u2019s located directly next to Caffe Vittoria, making it super easy to stop by since you\u2019ll already be in town.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
